There are five religions in Israel. In order of decreasing numbers: Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Druze, and Bahai'i. There are also smaller numbers of members of many other religions. Within the five most common religions, there is some diversity. Judaism covers quite a range of levels of observance and regional characteristics. Christianity includes a wide diversity of Christian Sects, ranging from Protestants to Armenians, to Catholics, to Eastern and Oriental Orthodox.

What 3 countries is Judaism the religion?

Only one nation is considered a Jewish country. That nation is Israel. More people of Jewish faith live in many nations than in Israel. It is worth noting that Israel is a secular country with a Jewish majority population, just like Germany is a secular country with a Christian majority population. There is no theocratic Jewish State in the world.

Sure there are more Christians than before as there are more Muslims as before and there more followers of any religion than before for this specific religion. This is natural due to the natural increase in population. This has nothing to do with those who convert from one religion to another.

What religions are practiced in Israel and only in Israel?

There is no such religion. Every religion that is practiced in Israel (all of its major Jewish movements, Sunni Islam, all of its Christian sects, Druze, Baha'i, etc.) is practiced by citizens of at least one other country.Answer 2All the well established religions had been started long years before the establishment of Israel in 1947. Accordingly, no one could expect to find a religion practiced only in Israel.


Where is Judaism followed today?

A survey in 2009 found self-identified adherents to Judaism in 136 countries. The one country that hosts more Jews than any other country is Israel. At the end of 2010, the number of Jews living in Israel was still very slightly less than half of the world's estimated Jewish population, and the other slightly-more-than-half were still dispersed among 135 other countries. There's no doubt that if Israel hasn't yet passed the 50% mark, it will any minute now. (It's also important to mention in connection with this discussion that the nation of Israel does not have an official religion.)
